Man pleads not guilty in pot case

Mason Moody

One of four men facing felony drug charges after police seized marijuana and other drugs worth more than $18,000 at a Wausau residence pleaded not guilty to the charges against him.

Mason Moody, 22, of Mosinee entered a not guilty plea Friday in Marathon County Circuit Court. Moody, who is charged with two felony and three misdemeanor drug charges, faces 16 years in prison and $35,000 in fines if convicted.

According to a criminal complaint, Marathon County detectives were contacted Sept. 28 after a United Parcel Service supervisor reported he had discovered a package suspected of containing marijuana that was scheduled for delivery. The package, which police say contained nearly eight pounds of high-grade marijuana, was opened to check for packing slips to confirm the delivery address. According to a police report, a 25-year-old Stevens Point man who cooperated with police delivered the package to Moody's home. A search by investigators turned up three more pounds of marijuana, more than 100 Oxycodone tablets, scales and several thousand dollars in cash, police said.

Josiah Mays, 21, of Stevens Point, Joseph Howe, 21, of Wausau and Joshua Geoffrey, 23, of Wausau also were arrested in connection with the case.

Moody on Oct. 22 was released from the Marathon County Jail after posting a $2,500 cash bond. A pretrial conference is scheduled for Feb. 25.
